Hamas' health ministry announced Thursday that the death toll in the Gaza Strip was "more than 30,000" since the conflict with Israel began on October 7. The Gaza Health Ministry does not indicate how the Palestinians were killed, whether by Israeli airstrikes and/or barrages or failed Palestinian rocket attacks.
It describes all victims as victims of "Israeli aggression" and also does not distinguish between civilians and combatants. The number of victims is provided by the Hamas-led Gaza Ministry of Health.
